Yup. That's why people put CL-S cams in the J30A1...Honda did kind of a whack job on the stock cams. No torque down low because one of the intake valves is almost completely closed below 3500 RPM, and it's not like I get good gas mileage anyway.

I'm working on GM's new Variable Cam Timing (VCT) 3.9L V6...veeeeery cool stuff. I hope Honda comes out with an i-VTEC V6 (i meaning VCT, not VCM or whatever) for the next generation J series engine.
